Personalised Cherished Number Plates

Since their humble beginning in 1903, cherished numbers have continued to increase in popularity often adding the finishing touch to our prized possessions and very often prove to be a valuable investment.

The First Number Plate Ever Issued

A1 assigned in 1903

The Motor Car Act 1903, which came into force on 1 January 1904, required all motor vehicles to be entered on an official vehicle register, and to carry number plates. The Act was passed in order that vehicles could be easily traced in the event of an accident or contravention of the law. Vehicle registration number plates in the UK are rectangular or square in shape, with the exact permitted dimensions of the plate and its lettering set down in law.

The ‘PNG’ number plate series was expected to be popular, as it’s short for ‘Penang’, and the high demand for the series has been confirmed by the state JPJ. New Straits Times reports that the ‘PNG 1’ plate received a bid of RM350,000, the highest ever in Penang. The report names Datuk M. Murly, CEO of a property development company, as the successful bidder.

JPJ Penang’s enforcement unit chief Zulkarnain Yasin said that ‘PNG’ vehicle registration numbers have received overwhelming response since the series was open for tender on October 30. A total of 1,554 bidders tried their luck.

“Total bids received for PNG is RM1.9 million involving 738 successful bidders. ‘PNG 1’ recorded the highest ever in the state, passing the previous record for ‘PNB 1’ sold for RM173,800,” he told the press in Bukit Mertajam today, adding that ‘PNG 5’ and ‘PNG 9’ received the second and third highest bids at RM95,000 and RM91,500 respectively.

There have been no shortage of fancy number plates for tender lately. We’ve seen the Y series, G series, ‘T1M‘, ‘A1M‘, ‘U’, ‘US’, ‘SMS‘, ‘RIMAU‘, ‘PERFECT’, ‘NAAM’, ‘VIP’, ‘GT’ and ‘PATRIOT’, on top of unique regular series plates such as ‘AKU‘, ‘RR‘, ‘DDD‘ and of course, today’s ‘PNG’.

WOULD you pay $50,000 for your DREAM number plates?

How about $300,000 for six of them?

Rodney Gilchrist has a DREAM that he hopes will snare him a $283,500 profit.

The Gold Coast businessman is selling six personalised number plates - DREAM1, DREAM2, DREAM3, DREAM4, DREAM5 and DREAM6 for $300,000.

The number plates have been on the market for about 12 months, as the church pastor patiently waits for a cashed-up fleet manager to buy the plates.

Mr Gilchrist said his Dream Centre Christian Church parishioners gifted him the DREAM1 number plate when he turned 40, 15 years ago.

Over the following years he decided to buy the other number plates for his wife and their four children.

"When I bought their number plates, the kids didn't even have their licences," Mr Gilchrist said.

"We mounted their plates on the wall and I said to them 'Pick out your dream car and when you get your licence we will buy you your dream car and put on your dream plates'."

The time has come for Mr Gilchrist to exchange the unique Queensland registrations for enough cash to enable the children to put deposits on their dream homes.

"I'm open to offers," Mr Gilchrist said.

"At the end of the day the plates have significant meaning to us, but helping the kids get into their own homes is more important."

The Delhi transport department will hold an auction for the first time for fancy two-wheeler registration numbers, with the most sought-after licence plate '0001' having a base price of Rs. 50,000.

The minimum price for the numbers from 0002 to 0009 will be Rs. 30,000, the department said in a notification.

Auction for fancy licence numbers of four-wheelers are already held and '0001' goes for a minimum reserved price of Rs. 5 lakh.

After the transport commissioner takes feedback on the auction prices and fix them, the department will announce when the auction will be held, said a senior transport department officer who asked not to be named.

A total of six categories of registration numbers will be auctioned for two-wheelers by the Arvind Kejriwal-run Delhi government's transport department.

The auction will be held every week on the transport department's website.

Number Plate Suppliers, do they have to be registered?

The short answer to the question is YES.

If you are buying a cherished plate through a registered (MIRAD) dealer who is also a registered number plate supplier (RNPS) with the DVLA then they can supply the plates for you.

Sales manager at Image Registrations Bruno Morris said if we are supplying the cherished number to the client and transferring it onto the vehicle for them then we already have established proof of ownership and identity during the transfer procedure. It saves the customer a lot of hassle by enabling us to supply the registration plates with the completed paperwork"."

They can be made of different materials, but more commonly seen are metals and acrylics. But as to how the standard specifications on the use, make and display guidelines of number plates are, it would vary with every city and country. There are some who would prefer to have their number plates more personalized. As long as how it is obtained abides with the regulations, such is possible.

Eric Morecambes Cherished Number Rescued!

Eric Morecambe's 1971 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow has been spared from the scrapheap at the last minute.

Peter Yates, who runs a wedding car firm in Morecambe, spotted the car in a Shrewsbury junkyard just 24 hours before it was due to be dismantled.

He said finding the car - which had the number plate EM100 when Morecambe owned it - was a 'miracle'.

The car was owned by the comic from 1971 and 1974 - as shown by the original order note - and Yates says it still smells of cigar smoke.

How the car came to be in a scrapheap is unknown. Seven years ago the car, including the personalised number plate, sold for £36,000 at auction.
